McKELLAR HOUSE

Originally built in 1873 by landowner and merchant John Alexander McKellar (1813-1875), this house was remodeled to its current appearance by his son, B. Yancy McKellar (1859-1916) about 1902.  Features of the colonial revival structure include two-story giant order columns with modified ionic capitals on the north and west facades, stained glass windows, and a wraparound porch.  The home remained in the McKellar Family until 1977.
